Fair enough. My guess is you're probably correct and he gets the C but this is unquestionably Eichel's team so he'd be my first choice after gionta

that's what baker said, and that's a good point...two points mentioned in the blog: 1. the oliers had messier as captain with the great one and 2. Eichel even mentioned following o'reilly's lead heading into this season

Garf had a couple of blogs where he remarked (somewhat creepily) about Jack's muscles and the fact that he was wearing Jorts...

Great beers!!!! Also your signature, I'm convinced Hanley is an Edmonton or Toronto alt made just to mess with you guys. I have never seen him post here once and while I barely post, I float and read daily.

kane's problem has never been on-ice save for some injuries...he comes to play every game and leaves everything out on the ice...his major problem, as we all know, stems from his immaturity off the ice

On the contrary, I think he is a guy who has only ever shown flashes of what he can do. I think a lot of that has to do with commitment, maturity and especially focus on his career.

ROR is a natural leader, and he's good at it.

Jack will face enough responsibility for pr and celebrity that it would be good to let OReilly deal w the C for a few years, anyway.

Yeah, I've only really seen him in Garf blogs, or the Ek/Hotstove ones. Regardless, the things that he posts are embarrassing for you folks as it leads other folks to use him as a judge for other Sabres fans...

I honestly think that he's one of the most overrated guys in the league. He's at the age now that he should have put it together if he was going to, and the off-ice issues really do nothing to help. I think that Buff have got to do everything that they can to move him, even if they have to take Canadian dollars on the US dollar to do so...

Yep. It's a shame cause in my experience in the real world Leafs and Sabers fans I think are some of the most knowledgeable fans that follows the game. Then you go online and see the crap Garth posts and it knocks us down and makes us look horrible. If Eklund had any interest in making this site credible he would get Garth out of here faster then you could say "silky mitts".

Edit: James Tanner as well...

Pretty much, he's got 6 or 7 years of experience now. If he were a consistent goal scoring threat, we'd have seen it by now

There have been numerous complaints, but Garf has been here since the beginning and Ek seems to have no interest in getting rid. Shame, as there are some really solid writers on the site - including your own blogger Michael - whose work is diminished by being on the same platform as Garf...

Not guilty.

Nobody ever specifically identified the LAKings Dman who was actually driving.
